📝 LYRICS – The Heart of the Harp

(Verse 1)
Out on the sea where the wild winds go,
The waves do crash and the whiskey doth flow.
The lads are hearty with tales to share,
Anchored by dreams and a compass fair.

(Chorus)
Sing ho lads ho, the harp will play,
Through stormy nights and bright clear days.
Raise your mugs to the roaring tide,
With a song to keep and none to hide.

(Verse 2)
There’s a lass ashore with hair of flame,
Her voice a melody I can’t but name.
Caught in her snare with a sailor’s grin,
She’s the harbor where my heart will win.

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
Oh sailor’s paths are marked in stars,
The luck o’havens and the whiskey jars.
We’re destined wanderers, we’ll ne’er be still,
But we’ll spin our yarns o’er every hill.

(Verse 3)
The anchor’s dropped and the gulls do cry,
The time will come soon to bid goodbye.
But oh, these tales will survive the night,
With ale and hearts that still burn bright.

(Chorus)
